• Employees know how their work relates to the company’s goals.
• Words are always followed by action.

Respect - managers support professional development and show appreciation and collaborate with employees on relevant decisions.

• Employees are cared for as individuals with personal lives.

Fairness - balanced treatment for all employees in terms of rewards, absence of favoritism in hiring and promotions and lack of discrimination of process for appeals.

We’re proud to say that all of these qualities and more exist right now at Northwest Community Hospital.
